Author Description

Human history is dotted with the exploits of men and women, kings and queens, rogues and despots. Tomes have been written chronicling the rise and fall of empires, but who is able to trace the movements of God between the pages of history? The answer? God Himself. The Bible is a reliable record of God s unceasing effort to reconcile fallen humanity to Himself through Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord. Christianity is based on the assumption that God exists and reveals Himself through human prophets, His special spokespersons to fallen humanity. The Gift of Prophecy in Scripture and History provides an exhaustive approach to this subject from a Seventh-day Adventist perspective. After surveying the Bible teachings about prophetic phenomena, this landmark work provides a helpful overview of how these phenomena have been understood within the Christian tradition, culminating with the prophetic ministry of Ellen G. White (1827-1915). This book breaks new ground and should remain a standard text on the subject for many years to come.
